Cover Work

For the last couple of weeks I've been working with designer and illustrator Ciara Gay on some covers for an upcoming series of books with Simon and Schuster. It's been an interesting challenge especially since the two characters featured are identical twins.

The covers were done digitally in Photoshop with the layers on top of the detailed drawing.

Very cool, and the expressions are great. Are you familiar with the work of Charles Dana Gibson, September 14, 1867 – December 23, 1944. If you haven't heard of him I think you would like his pen and ink work.

Wow! I love looking at your work!! You are so talented. Can I ask what tablet you use for your artwork? Also, do you know some good sources to learn how to digitally paint? Thanks :) Your so inspiring!

This one is using Gimp instead of Photoshop. It's pretty much the same as how I work, but I do treat it more like a physical painting. For example I won't paint the background behind characters before painting them, but in the computer it can be beneficial
